Not including: Items in bags, guild bank/s or personal banks.
There are markets I’m missing out on, especially blacksmithing, engineering, and cross faction.
I don’t do all the markets at one time, it’s important to pace yourself to avoid burn out.

The Gold Queen is written by Alyzande. With many level 100s, 9 years expertise in making gold, 10 garrisons, 16k achievements, 1505 days played, and over 18m gold earned. The Gold Queen blog teaches you how to make gold playing World of Warcraft using ethical trading, auction house flipping, crafting, reselling snatch lists, and farming gold making.

On a side note did anyone take advantage of the Valentines Day season, I noticed that to get love tokens you had to kill npc’s and one of the places was Icecrown, with a high rate of drops for Frostweave Cloth, which in turn flooded the AH with stacks selling between 1g to 20g per stack, (I filled up 3 guild bank tabs) and now that the prices have gone back to the normal I am now selling them for 50-60g per stack..

Graeme here, it’s good to see actual results, I worry that sometimes one just sees “talk” on forums and blogs!
The Gold Queen shows what is possible, the detail per profession is very helpful.
But I guess the main thing is being able to play the AH to the level one is happy and comfortable with, one can pitch ones activities versus game play to hit ones personal goals – be it gold cap, or simply having a disposable income to get that piece of armour, mount or whatever, when one wants it – without breaking the bank!
So fun and success to you all.

You highlight something that I find interesting. The amount of items you have posted versus incoming gold. My typical aim is to be in markets that will typically over night result in 10-20% of my listed items being sold. My aim is I dont want to spend a lot of time posting but prefer to play. AH is a sideline for me despite the amount of gold that I make. I aim for 15-30 mins of posting time a day automating as much as I can. You still have to watch price trends etc My typical day will be 60-100k of listed items with 8-12k of net profit in on an average day. Main focus is jc/glyphs. I have every profession and vary the other items I sell. I am multiple gold capped which is really irrelevant. Long time consistent AH player should have lots of gold.

How much do you bring in on an average day? You have a high amount posted so I am just curious?

Hi Brent
I aim for 20k a day. If I make less I get cross with myself and re-evaluate everything. If I make more, I bounce around on twitter and annoy everyone with excited squeals.

Any more than 20k usually means that one of my high value items has sold, like a new BoE epic or the other day I had a rush on Black Tabby Cat Carrier. These are lovely, but not really part of my day-to-day 20k churn.

Yeah, you absolutely have to have a goal. When you’re just “making gold for the hell of it” its just not as much fun.

When I spent a small fortune on mounts and desecrated my gold level, I was suddenly struck by the worry that I might have to take a screenshot and it might show that I only have 400k, so the effort I put into getting back up to a million was phenomenal.
